ULCS Arms

[medic5]

I am about to order an S2000 strobe plus tray and arms for my Canon camera. One quote I received has a "generic" arm but some have recommended the ULCS arms. Is it worthwhile to pay about $200 extra for a setup with these arms??

I have been using ULCS arms now for about 16 yrs, same set I bought in 1995, and they have had hundreds of dives, so as far as I am concerned, well worth the money.

I also use ULCS arms and clamps, most serious U/W Photogs do I think. They're excellent quality, easy to expand, durable and ULCS makes an attachment or adapter for just about anything you will ever want. highly recommended.

take care,

agree. i've been using them for quite some time and they are top notch.

I shoot a G10 with S2000 strobe and use a UCLS "knock off" tray, handle, arms and clamps.

When I looked at the same tray, handle, arms and clamps from UCLS I couldn't tell the difference between them.

Although I didn't buy it from this site, I have heard good things about it and if you want to save money you can also check him out: opticaloceansales.com He's a frequent poster on this board as well.

Another recommendation is reefphotovideo.com The guys there are really good to talk to and won't try to "up sell" you. I bought my strobe and some other accessories through them.

ULCS = durable + bulletproof

You will get much more flexibility and buildability [adding bits on] from the Ultralight
